Re: OE6 problem in sending



Your current Identity may have been damaged by the email scanning, especially if its the default Main Identity. Try one or more of your accounts in a new Named Identity (File>Identities>Add new identity). Assuming all is well, import messages from the old Identity before deleting it (File>Identities>Manage Identities).

To avoid such corruption in future:

Don't use Inbox or Sent Items to archive messages. Move them to local folders created for this purpose.

Empty Deleted Items folder daily.

Disable Background Compacting [N/A in SP2] and frequently perform a manual compact of all OE folders while "working offline". More at http://insideoe.tomsterdam.com/files/maintain.htm.

Your anti-virus application's email scanning feature can also cause such corruption. Disable it. It provides no additional protection.

Hello DGuess,
Thanks for your swift reply but it didn't work. I even tried turn-off
in-coming and out-going scanning. I watch this time and the process is
taking so long just to connect and still failed. All my out mail remained
in OutBox.

OE Error message:
The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'rino@xxxxxxxxxxxxx',
Server: 'mail.apexworld.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No,
Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

Turn off email scanning and try it again.

Email scanning provides no additional benefits other than the user seeing
something is going on. If you keep up to date on the AV signatures, any
vurus or worm you open in an email would be detected by the base AV
software. If you don't keep up to date then email scanning would be of no
use because it's not up to date to detect anything. Scanning has been know
to cause problems such as not sending or receiving or timing out.
